Book Reviews

Barnes and Noble reviews tend to be detailed and literary, with a brief plot synopsis combined with an analysis of the themes, historical and cultural context, and literary devices used. The reviewer gives their opinion of the book as well as provides titles with similar themes and subjects.

Kirkus Reviews tend to be brief, only two or three paragraphs long. The emphasis is on describing the writing style and quality, with a short plot synopsis included. Reviews end with a summary of the reviewer's thoughts and links to purchase options.
